NFL Network has issued a number of conflicting reports regarding Lynch’s status. Both Michael Robinson and Michael Gehlken rebutted Silver’s report that a deal between the Raiders and Lynch had been reached.

Ian Rapoport, also of NFL Network, said that while a deal has not been completed, “optimism is there.”

Apparently, the Seahawks were surprised by the reports that a deal had been reached. Silver tweeted that the Seahawks were “caught off guard” by an agreement between Lynch and Raiders and “no trade talks had commenced as of then.”

It may still happen. But as of now, source says "100 percent false" a deal has been reached between Raiders, Marshawn Lynch. Wait continues.
